QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 21, 2014 -> 02:56 PM) If the Sox don't intend to spend substantial money for a #2 starting pitcher this offseason, they really should be looking to trade Alexei (while his value is still high). That's why I think it would be wise to sign Shields and put him in between Sale and Quintana.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 21, 2014 -> 01:59 PM) Jose taking balls!!! And then that ffs That's gone at our park.

QUOTE (iguchi=dank @ Jun 21, 2014 -> 01:57 PM) The good thing about the offseason this year is that we don't really need A list guys. Just need to find some angel pagans and a couple pitchers that are average. Rienzo and Noesi are huge black holes Disagree, I'd go after Shields

Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 17m Buddy Bell talked today about numerous topics including Carlos Rodon. He expects his signing to go down to the Draft signing deadline, but. Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 17m he would like to see him sign sooner than later because he has such high expectations for Rodon. Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 17m Bell: "The sooner you sign and with his ability and how I see him, this kid is going to be in the big leagues soon.... Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 16m More Bell: "... It just seems to me if money is the issue, he’s going to make a helluva lot more getting it started than not."

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jun 21, 2014 -> 11:30 AM) I love following the Montas starts. I agree. I love Montas. I'm keeping my eye on Jaye this second half, see how he bounces back after strong starts in Winston Salem.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Jun 21, 2014 -> 11:17 AM) 2:10pm Rienzo 4-4 vs Correia 3-8 Let's get a f***ing win please in Minnesota I agree. Just f***ing win.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jun 20, 2014 -> 10:18 PM) Why bring in our ONLY lefty to face a switch-hitter and a righty? Because Ventura. Because Webb couldn't find the plate? I mean is it that obvious....

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 20, 2014 -> 05:34 PM) Hey, I am also currently a sport management major. Only a year left.. We are hoping to be able to move in the Chicago area eventually.. I kind of figured I would have to start working with an independent league team or minor league team before being able to get into a front office of an MLB team which is also my dream as well.. Where do you go to school? I'm at Concordia Chicago with about a year and a half left. If I had my choice, I would love to move to the Chicago area. So I am really trying to find a job here after school than making San Diego my second option. QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Jun 20, 2014 -> 06:03 PM) My sister and her family live there and it has amazing weather and outdoor activities. Traffic is about as bad as a normal big city, but the cost of living is really high and the people arent super friendly. If you can legitimately afford it and arent looking for any resemblance of a small town feel, then its a great option. Yeah the cost of living is pretty high there, but I am really hesitant on moving but my girlfriend is all set on moving. So I gave in but I get to choose where we live. I'd rather live in San Diego than a suburb of San Diego. I'm already in the suburbs here, and with the possibility of moving out to California, I'm thinking mind as well go big. Plus, the weather is great year round so walking is a possibility all the time.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 20, 2014 -> 12:28 AM) San Diego is an area of towns. Are you a hippie or a yuppie? I prefer a yuppie. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 20, 2014 -> 08:16 AM) Where will you be working? Getting around many areas in California is rough, that's my first reaciton. Haven't applied to any jobs yet. I'm still currently in school, but me and my girlfriend are deciding on what to do with our lives after graduation. I'm a Sport Management major so I would love to get into professional baseball somehow as a scout or front office (GM is my dream job). But I realize thats not realistic out of college. I would love to coach also high school (as I already have experience) or college baseball. QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 20, 2014 -> 01:47 PM) San Diego's pretty awesome. Weather is great (obviously) and I really enjoyed my three night stay there when I went down there to interview for a job. Yeah it was great, I was there for a week couple years ago for a Dairy Queen convention.

QUOTE (chisoxfan310 @ Jun 20, 2014 -> 03:23 PM) Let him replace Viciedo. Not yet. Gotta have patience with Viciedo, like Hawk said yesterday, some guys take a little longer to get going. Viciedo just turned 25. Plenty of time for him to turn it around.

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jun 20, 2014 -> 03:13 PM) Now I really want him. Law on Abreu: "Abreu has enormous raw power, probably a 70 or perhaps higher, on the 20-80 scale. The power is evident in BP and should translate to 25-35 homers a year in the majors. The concerns about him revolve around his bat speed and his conditioning, only one of which can be fixed or improved at this point. " I want him too. Keep the Cubans coming.

I'm sure Jose will do a little recruiting.

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jun 20, 2014 -> 01:17 PM) Or until they implement the international draft. I thought they are implementing the draft but not until like 2016? I could be wrong. How soon can we expect Tomas to sign?

The best hitter in Cuba Yasmani Tomas has defected and wants to play in the MLB. He's an outfielder. Let's get him.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 19, 2014 -> 11:07 PM) Warning track power tonight. Can't believe they can't get to Pino. Well we always struggle against guys making their major league debuts.

Anybody from California in here that can give me suggestions on good cities/towns to live in? I have been looking into the San Diego area but don't know much about it. Can anyone help me on what California/San Diego is like?

Flowers still sucks.

De Aza is hitting over 400 in June....

I got a game tonight but I am recording it. I really want to see Rondon, Trey and Hayes live (somewhat)

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 19, 2014 -> 01:49 PM) Everytime I see a new post in this thread I click it hoping to see Rodon signed. When it isn't the latest post. It makes me sad. I get the same feeling

The Kanny game is going to be on CBS SportsNetwork

QUOTE (BFirebird @ Jun 19, 2014 -> 10:54 AM) I am not sure where Jim Bowden pulled this from....but he obviously doesn't think having possibly 5 lefty starters in a few years isn't a big deal. :-) I won't post his explanation since it is an insider article, but here is his trade idea for Price: The trade: Micah Johnson, Erik Johnson and Chris Beck for Price. He lists this as his 3rd idea. Others: LAA: C.J. Cron and Alex Yarbrough for Price. TOR: Aaron Sanchez and Alberto Tirado for Price. NYY: Gary Sanchez, Luis Severino and Peter O'Brien for Price. ATL: Alex Wood, Lucas Sims and a pitching prospect for Price. Not sure if TB would want Johnson and Beck. Link: http://insider.espn.go.com/blog/the-gms-of...ce?refresh=true This is discussed in the trade winds thread.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 18, 2014 -> 10:31 PM) Ozzies tail is really really really planted between his legs. That's the only way he was going to come back even for this. What do you mean by that?
